We offer a range of pre-designed or bespoke packages to suit all your personal or business needs. We can customize every aspect to fit your individual requirements.
All Web Design Newcastle’s packages include the following:
- Responsive design complimenting your corporate (or other) image, which works well on all devices (mobile, tablet, laptop, desktop)
- Single or multiple page layout to include homepage, contact details, logo/image and social media links
- Domain/web address (e.g. yourdomain.co.uk)
- Email address (e.g. you@yourdomain.co.uk)
- Search Engine Optimised (SEO) pages
- Hosting (storage) of your site on reliable web servers is payable annually (starting 6-months after date of contract) or monthly (starting 2-months after date of contract. Pro bono hosting charges start after 1-year).
The Website Layout
Homepage
The homepage (landing page) is an introduction to your website and your business/hobby.
This should include a short description, promotional image and/or company logo. We will also build in consistent links to the remaining pages (where appropriate).
Text
For reasons of speed and accuracy we prefer text to be supplied via email in plain text.
Current promotional material is very useful. Web Design Newcastle can retype this information for an additional hourly fee.
NB: Web Design Newcastle do not take responsibility for any typing errors; while we will proof-read the site, it is the client’s responsibility to send any corrections to us via email prior to the site going live.
If you are unsure or inexperienced at concise descriptive writing, Web Design Newcastle offer a copywriting service upon request.
Media
Promotional photographs can illustrate your products, services or premises and add interest to your website.
These can be either existing promotional material or supplied as standard photographs.
Photos can also be supplied via email or CD in a variety of formats, which we will discuss with you as required.
Images can be purchased at extra cost from a stock image supplier, or photographed by Web Design Newcastle.
NB: Web Design Newcastle cannot take responsibility for the quality of photographs supplied by the client. If photos or brochures are supplied, we will advise the client if the images will not reproduce for web at reasonable quality.
It is the responsibility of the client to obtain any permission required to use any photographs on their website. Copyright laws still apply to the Internet.
Pages
Use these to give more details on your goods, services, location and really sell your company to its target audience.
These can contain information from your existing promotional material, or can be written and submitted by the client.
Please be aware that copyright laws still apply to the Internet and it remains the responsibility of the client to obtain the required permissions, to use any images, trademarks, logos etc. on their website.
Blog:
You’ll be able to keep your website fresh by adding your own posts and pics!
Contact
The contact form allows you to collect valuable details on your customers and their requests.
It will contain the following fields: name, email address, comments. More fields can be added at mutual agreement.
This information will be forwarded to both the client’s email account and the sender’s, after which it is the responsibility of the client to store this information. The sender will also be presented with a ‘thank you’ message once the form has been successfully sent.
Hosting
Hosting payments are not due until 1-year (6-months if opting for monthly payments) after the date of your contract.
This is where your website is actually physically kept. It is similar to the way in which your files are stored on your own office or home computer, but on a special fast computer which can be accessed from all around the world.
Prefer your own hosting? See FAQ.
NB: Although you are unlikely to be affected, please be aware that there are restrictions on the amount of storage and data transfer with any hosting agreement.
SSL
SSLs (Secure Sockets Layer) have a lifetime of only 3 months. We will attempt to renew your certificate automatically but Let’s Encrypt may fail to accept this renewal or revoke the certificate at any time, outside of our control. If your website is mission critical, we recommend purchasing an SSL from ourselves.
Domain
We will secure yourdomain.co.uk (your name or other relevant and available option).
We’ll setup you@yourdomain.co.uk email address and advise how best to access your messages.
